!! ATTENTION ALL FURB ENJOYERS !!

DISCLAIMER: As part of this project, I am not going to remake the entire movie. I am just putting together a pitch presentation, trailer, or advertisement.

For my college project, I get to reimagine a piece of media and attempt to make it better, and I've chosen to do Furby Island because I need a Furby Island remaster in my life.

I will be making redesigns of characters, likely rewriting them. Certain things in general will likely be redesigned, but I do plan to keep the plot rrrrelatively similar? I definitely hope to flesh it out a bit, though.

★ !! As part of this project, I've been asked to research other people's ideas, so please, if you're interested, share anything that you've ever thought about being fun or silly, or better, as part of a remake of the 2005 Furby Island movie !! ★

I've considered the idea of it being a show instead of a movie. Furby Island 2005 was going to get a series based on the movie's plot, but it ended up being scrapped. I'm sort of torn on it. I plan to have it changed to 2D puppet animation because we all know the tragedy that 2005's CGI was, and 2D is seen more in shows than films. Idk, feel free to put your opinion down in the poll below!

If you've taken the time to read this, thank you very much!!

CrayFurbs minimally invasive Furby restoration tutorial (pt 1)

Hello everyone! So I had a couple people ask me about my cleaning methods so I thought I would make a tutorial post! These are just things I’ve learned and the Method I prefer when cleaning or restoring furbys for my personal collection (that being one’s I like to keep mint or near perfect) or rarer furbys (like kid cuisinea, hi-cs) without causing damage to the zip tie or tags.

So in this tutorial I’ll walk you through:

Disabling the zip tie WITHOUT cutting it

Removing and preserving paper tags

General cleaning + what I found works best

Step 1: specimen procurement.

Today I present you with a very stinky lad who has the honor (or misfortune) of being my demonstrate-ie

He’s overall in good cosmetic condition, tags intact but his fur is extremely yellowed and he is generally icky.

Step 2. Removing the ziptie, without cutting it

So to start, locate the zip tie and shift the pelt until the main block part is exposed like so

Then take a sharp tool and push it BETWEEN the locking mechanism and the end of the zip tie, it takes some practice but with a little push….

It pops free! You just preserved the zip tie without cutting it :) and you can re-use it on the furb!

You can then skin as usual. Really your preference on this.

Step 3: removing the “hang tag”

So now you should have a pelt with the tag on, now if you want to still wash the furb + save the tags here’s how I do it!

find the end of the hang tag, it should look like a little “T” you can use a needle or similar tool to part the fur and find the the hole where it went through, gently angle the T piece and feed it through

Flip the furb inside out, and repeat previous step.

You should then have a plastic tag that hasn’t been cut, and with no damage to the paper tag.

Now. Take that beautifully skinned pelt and put it in some water to soak…. While part 2 is being written.

I like da monki :3

Also! I had a lot of asks about my furby patterns for the 2023 furb among others, so I decided to do a couple digital patterns on Ko-fi

This is my first time selling patterns, but I’m kind of a perfectionist and try to get them nearly identical to factory ones so ye :p

These patterns are all the ones I personally use for my customs. I’ve got some pretty unusual ones like 2005s and shelbies! I should have some more up soon, including 05 baby’s and some cloths! (Like tropical furby shirt and Wizard cloak)

“I’m sure many of you are wondering as to the origin of this quaint little blog- possibly puzzling over its particular presence!”

“I, Edward Nygma, known also as the Riddler, have decided to finally enter the world conjured by the digital era- and started an account on Tumblr!”

“Of course, I’m sure many of you wonder how my valuable time can be wasted by such trivial affairs- of posts about cats and ‘one million Dracula attacks’ and whatnot-”

“But it’s less about me seeing you- and far more about you seeing me! I’m sure it’s a delight for many of you- from a mere glance, I could see the absolute adoration a select few have for my namesake.”

“Thus, without further ado-”
